Judy once had a minor cold or injury, and Susan would be very anxious and worried. However, now that Judy had almost lost her life, Susan did not show the slightest concern. Her tone seemed almost to blame Judy for being alright."Judy, is your boss seriously injured?" Susan pressed, "Where did he get hurt?"Judy just looked at Susan and countered, "Susan, why are you so concerned about my boss?"Susan was caught off guard, appearing uneasy and avoiding eye contact as she said, "You were in a car accident with your boss. What if his family blames you? Of course, I have to ask clearly."Is that so?Judy felt it wasn't that simple. Susan must be hiding something from her.Testing the waters, Judy suggested, "My boss’s ward is just up ahead, Susan, why don't you go see for yourself?"With Judy around, Susan dared not go."No need. He's your boss, and I don't know him, so why should I see him?" Susan asked uncomfortably, "Judy, are you staying at the hospital tonight?""Yes," Judy said, "
Judy really didn't know John had feelings for her, and Susan's words were a shock to her."How could that be, Susan? John is a friend, like family. That's impossible."Judy truly couldn't believe it; she always saw John as family. Moreover, he was the only one who knew about her pregnancy.John had even offered to be the godfather to the baby."John's gifts from his business trips are always different, and yours are always the most expensive," Susan said. "The only reason he buys for me is for fear that you'd refuse or feel guilty, so he gets something for me too. Judy, you're so intelligent, how can you not see John's feelings?"Susan's tone was filled with jealousy; she also had feelings for John. The three of them had been friends since childhood, but in John's eyes, there was only Judy—Susan felt like nothing but the backdrop, the green leaves to Judy's shining star. Under Judy's dazzling glow, she was never noticed.That's why Susan was jealous and envious, her heart was sensitiv
Lewis approached and looked carefully.Unconsciously, Lewis's face was almost close to Judy's face.Suddenly, Judy opened her eyes, and Lewis's handsome face was right in front of her, bathed in moonlight, with a layer of coolness.They were too close, close enough to feel each other's breath.Judy blinked, her gaze fell on his Adam's apple, only to see it rolling, very alluring.Their eyes met, and suddenly a hint of ambiguity spread in the air.His gaze shifted from her eyes to her lips, her collarbone...Her dark hair spread behind her head, and their posture was very ambiguous. From his perspective, it seemed even more familiar.The faint scent of mint on her body stirred his physiological memory, and his lips slowly approached hers uncontrollably.Judy nervously clenched her hands, her heart pounding. "Le... Lewis."Her voice pulled him back from bewilderment, and his lips stopped just a millimeter away from hers.He didn't know why he had an uncontrollable desire for her; the no
Judy had too many reservations.If she had someone to back her up, sufficient capital, she might try to date Lewis.Even if there was no future, she wouldn't care.But currently, it wasn't feasible; their statuses were too different, and he had a girlfriend – it was a matter of principle.It took Judy a long time to compose herself before leaving the restroom.Lewis was sitting on a caregiver's bed, smoking, also calming himself.Hearing footsteps, Lewis turned to look at her and extinguished the cigarette in his hand."You sleep on the bed; it's softer."Judy glanced at the hospital bed, feeling really uncomfortable about the idea – he was the patient."Sir, no need; you should sleep in the hospital bed, I'll sleep on the caregiver's bed."Lewis said in a firm tone, "That's an order."Saying so, he lay down on the caregiver's bed, leaving Judy no choice but to take the hospital bed.Judy felt guilty. Lewis had saved her life, and now she was taking his hospital bed – it seemed so wro
Lewis's phone rang; it was his family urging him. He didn't take the call, just silenced it.Lewis glanced at Judy, "Yeah, I used to have a friend living here. By the way, you should also get checked at the hospital, the company will cover the expenses."After such a serious accident, Judy didn't even want to get checked; Lewis was worried she might have internal injuries. Sometimes, one might look fine on the surface, but internal organs could have been damaged."Yeah, thanks for your concern, President."Judy watched the car drive away on the roadside and didn't turn to go upstairs until it was out of sight. Now it was almost four in the afternoon, and Judy hadn't gone to the hospital, feeling she didn't have any major issues, just a bruised knee that was now much better.Not long after Judy arrived home, John called her, "Judy, are you back from the business trip? Tonight I've invited Susan over for dinner at my place; you both need to sit down and talk things out."John didn't kno
Judy is pregnant? Susan was shocked to the core, her face suddenly paling. "When did this happen?" Susan demanded answers, "When did Judy tell you? How come I didn't know?" "You two had a fight, you blacklisted her, how was she supposed to tell you?" John said, "You two were best sisters, always told each other everything. Susan, do you know any guy Judy is familiar with? Anyone she's been close to?" John had called Susan over to find out exactly who had wronged Judy. He wanted to find that person; they must be held accountable for Judy. John loved Judy, but his love wasn't about possession; he simply wanted her to be happy. "Judy didn't tell you who the baby's father is?" Susan understood from his response. John nodded, "Judy won't say. Susan, do you know?" How could Susan not know? The baby Judy carried was surely Lewis's. Susan felt a threat. If Judy had a baby, would she go to Lewis for responsibility? Wouldn't she be done for? With a baby as her trump card, Judy could l
The meal brought back familiar feelings among the three of them.To be precise, it was Judy and John who seemed to return to old times, while Susan was completely distracted during the meal, her glances occasionally falling on Judy's belly.The thought of Judy carrying Lewis's baby unsettled her, filling her with fear and worry.Taking advantage of Susan's improved demeanor, John took the opportunity to ask, "Susan, don’t you plan on bringing your boyfriend to meet us?"Judy also said, "Why, are you still mad at me? Rest assured, I won't say anything. Seeing that you're doing so well now, I believe your boyfriend is sincere. We wish you the best.""No," Susan forced a smile and said, "He really is busy. It's not that I don’t want to bring him around to meet you, he just went on a business trip a couple of days ago... to Germany, might take a few months to return. Once he comes back, I'll definitely introduce him to you all."As she ate her shrimp, Judy casually asked, "What's your boy
John raised his hand, "I'm busy these next two days; I've got a divorce case. It's a dispute over assets between a couple, and the court session is the day after tomorrow."Susan said, "I have time, Judy, any plans? Going for a prenatal checkup? I can accompany you."She was eager to know more about Judy's baby."It's not time for a checkup yet, the doctor told me to come next month," Judy replied. "I was just asking casually.""Then I’ll come with you for your next checkup," Susan was enthusiastic. "John is a man, and he might not be as attentive to detail.""Sure, I’ll definitely call you," Judy joked. "Just don't blacklist me again.""Why would I do that?" Susan felt a bit awkward internally. "I was just upset then."After a while, Judy and Susan left John's place, with Susan insisting on escorting Judy home.Arriving at Blue Cloud community, Judy asked, "Aren’t you going to come in and sit?"But Susan stood at the door, showing no intention of entering.A sixty-plus square-meter r
Serina subconsciously glanced at Lewis, who was standing in front of Judy's tombstone. Could it be for him?During these days, Lewis had been very quiet, and his daily routine was to perform the funeral rites for Judy and accompany her on her final journey.He no longer shed tears, but he also had no smile, as if he were just an empty shell.People lined up to offer flowers in their hands, stood in silence in front of Judy's grave for a few seconds, and then walked away, one after another. The funeral lasted until 10 o'clock in the morning.Lewis unexpectedly spoke, addressing his grandmother, "Grandma, let everyone go back. I'll stay here a little longer to keep Judy company."He hadn't spoken for a long time, and when Lewis finally did, his voice was extremely hoarse, and it had changed a bit.The grandmother's eyes were moist, and she nodded in agreement, asking Antonio to see the relatives and friends off.People gradually left, and in the end, only a few people, including Serena,
The helicopter arrived in Birmingham and landed in the backyard of Lewis's villa, where Lewis disembarked carrying the urn."Judy, we're home," he whispered softly, his tone gentle.The others also got off the helicopter, and Antonio, who had already received the news, had prepared a memorial hall at home.After a year, Judy finally returned, but in such a manner.Antonio was waiting at home, and it was only when he saw Lewis holding the urn and getting off the helicopter that he truly believed Judy had passed away, and what Isabella had said on the phone was true.Soon after,The news of Judy's death spread, shocking everyone. How could someone who was fine before suddenly pass away?In the eyes of outsiders, Judy was a person who had survived a shipwreck.Steven also received the news and quickly went to Lewis's house.A memorial hall was set up, with a coffin placed in the hall, and Judy's urn was placed inside the coffin.Lewis invited high monks to perform a funeral service for J
As Hannah said, even if it was a heart-wrenching pain, Lewis would still want to listen. He wanted to know what Judy experienced before her death.Hannah continued, "Judy was afraid of dying because she couldn't bear to leave you and Angel, but we did our best, and the doctors were helpless. She didn't want to die in the hospital; it seemed she was very averse to hospitals. After the doctor said there was no hope, she asked us to take her away, so I took her home, and she passed away in the attic room...""At that time, I promised her to fulfill her last wishes. She couldn't let go of you and Angel, so I went to your side, impersonated Judy, and took care of you and Angel in her place. But I couldn't do it, and in the end, I chose to make you dislike me, to give up on the marriage voluntarily."Hannah paused for a moment and gave a bitter smile, "Judy died when you loved her the most. You will never be able to let go of her for the rest of your life. Judy thought that if you didn't lo
Hannah was worried and wanted to find Lewis.She called the grandmother and only then learned that Lewis was hospitalized in the hospital next door.Taking advantage of the fact that neither Kim nor Guy were in the hospital, Hannah removed the IV needle from the back of her hand and was about to sneak out.However, just as she stepped out of the room, Kim returned from outside: "Sister, where are you going?""I..." Hannah stammered.Kim immediately guessed: "You want to find Lewis? I forbid you to go. You just had surgery. What are you going to do looking for Lewis? He already knows you're not Judy. If he gets angry and hurts you, what then?"Hannah said, "But I can't hide either. Lewis is ill, and everything is because of me. I should go. I owe it to Judy.""You don't owe anyone anything. Judy couldn't have been saved anyway. Even if you hadn't used Judy's heart, someone else would have," Kim said, "Anyway, I won't let you go.""Kim, why are you so heartless?" Hannah got angry, "Judy
Many children nowadays actually understand that the dead are buried beneath the graves.Angel opened her big eyes, which were clear and naive.Such a look, who wouldn't feel heartache upon seeing it?Lewis forced himself to sit up, leaning against the tombstone, his hand stroking it, not knowing how to explain to his daughter.Angel looked at Louis again, "Who is underneath this?"Louis really didn't know how to answer. He glanced at Lewis.Angel's gaze then shifted to Avery, wanting an answer from him.But no one had the heart to tell Angel such a cruel answer.Just when everyone found it hard to speak, Angel reached out her small hand to touch the tombstone and asked softly, "Is my mother buried here?"Angel's words shocked the three of them. How did Angel know?Could it be that there is truly a mother-daughter connection?Seeing that the adults were all silent, Angel suddenly burst into tears, "Mommy, it's mommy, I want my mommy."Angel cried her heart out, and Lewis held his daugh
When a person is at their most helpless and desperate, they hope for miracles, they wish for time to go back.The rain continued to fall, and the temperature at night was very low, so cold that it made people shiver.Lewis lay on the grave like a walking corpse, devoid of any vitality.Louis walked over with an umbrella and held it above his head: "Boss, don't do this. If Judy sees you like this from heaven, she will be upset."Lewis's eyes were open, but it was as if he couldn't see or hear anything. He didn't care about anything or listen to anyone. He just wanted to be closer to Judy by staying close to the grave.God couldn't hear his hysterical cries or see his heart-wrenching pain."Boss," Louis crouched down and persuaded him, "The rain is getting heavier, let's go back first."Lewis's eyes slightly shifted, finally finding a focal point: "Judy is afraid of the cold and the dark. I can't leave her alone here. I need to accompany her.""Boss, I know you're in a lot of pain, but
Isabella's face showed sadness, "Lewis definitely can't handle it. How can a person endure the loss of their loved one twice?"Isn't that like rubbing salt into a wound?"If he can get through this, then we won't have to worry in the future. But if he can't..." The grandmother didn't finish her sentence.Everyone knew the implications of what could happen....Cemetery.The dimly lit cemetery was quite eerie, and someone with a timid nature would probably be terrified to visit.The weather changed abruptly, and a light drizzle began to fall.Lewis, with Judy on his mind, stumbled towards Judy's tombstone after getting out of the car.There were only a few lamps in the cemetery, and one of them happened to be pointing in the direction of Judy's tombstone, making it easy for Lewis to find it at once."Judy, Judy!"Lewis was too eager and overwhelmed with grief. When he saw Judy's tombstone, the sorrow in his heart surged like a floodgate being opened, pouring out. He was walking too qui
The grandmother sighed, "Lewis found out about Judy's passing and couldn't bear the blow.""Lewis knows?" Serina was astonished, "And you all knew too?"Louis was surprised, "Serina, you knew about it early on?"Serina was among the first to know."Yes, Hannah told me before," Serina said, "I was worried that Lewis wouldn't be able to handle it, so I didn't dare to tell him. How did he find out?""Paper can't wrap up fire," Louis said, "Once Hannah fell and was hospitalized, it was impossible to keep it a secret.""Then when Lewis went out just now..." Serina immediately became worried, "What if something happens to him, or he gets the wrong idea?"Avery said, "He probably went to the cemetery to see Judy."The grandmother quickly said, "Louis, go to the cemetery right away and keep an eye on him. Don't let him do anything foolish.""Okay, grandma, don't worry, I'll go there now," Louis assured her.Louis and Avery went together.Serina took the grandmother back to the hotel first, wh
Lewis was emotionally out of control, looking at Hannah's face, he wished he could peel off her skin.That was the face of his wife.He wished he could dig out her heart, for it belonged to his wife.Hannah was unworthy, unworthy of possessing everything that belonged to Judy.If it weren't for this heart, how could he have been deceived and confused, mistaking Hannah for his wife? All the familiarity that Hannah gave him was because of this heart.Angel recognized Hannah as her mother, and that was also because of this heart.In Lewis's eyes, Hannah was the murderer, one of those responsible for Judy's death.Hannah did not defend herself; she knew that Lewis was in a state of rage and would not listen to anything.No one could accept such a thing.Lewis wanted to strangle Hannah, but looking at that face, he couldn't bring himself to do it; it was no different from killing Judy himself.The people outside the room couldn't see what was happening inside, but they could hear it.Reali
